Have you ever seen anyone "dissemble" a car's engine? Chances are you never will. Not only is it impossible, but I think it violates some law of physics or something.
While these two words look almost identical (they're only two letters apart), they couldn't be more different in meaning.
"Dissemble" means to intentionally hide the truth. You can dissemble a prospective employer into thinking you're qualified for a position you have no business holding. After he finds out you're totally incompetent, however, you may see him "disassembling" your desk.
To "disassemble" something obviously means "to take apart."
As far as you know, I may be "dissembling" you into thinking I know what the heck I'm talking about. Sometimes I wonder myself. Then I think to myself, "How will they know?" I'll just keep on posting so you can think I'm really smart.
